Naturally Healthy Pets

Three Simple Strategies that Guarantee Optimal Health for Your Pet

Preventative medicine is not only important for humans, but is equally necessary for keeping family pets with us for as long as possible. Many of us have suffered the loss of a dearly loved family pet a condition that may have been easily prevented if we just took a few preventative measures to improve environment factors.

What we mean is that we have to “create our pet’s health” proactively throughout their life, rather than waiting to be told that their health has deteriorated beyond help. By the time the condition shows up, preventable, irreversible damage may have already occurred.

One of the biggest misconceptions people have is that their animals are very healthy up until the time the disease or sickness appears. Veterinarians are often told, “My pet was healthy until he/she started showing the signs of sickness.”

Disease and sickness don’t just occur, they grow over time because our pet’s immune systems are unable to function optimally, which in turn leads to biochemical changes, and then to structural changes, to pathologic tissue changes, and ultimately to an ugly diagnosis that none of us are prepared to hear. Being proactive with our pet’s health is the best way to prevent an eventual battle with a major illness.

Three Aspects to Optimal Pet Health

Regardless of what kind of animal you have, there are three important aspects to your pet’s well being that should be considered and these are;

  1. Species-appropriate nutrition: Each animal must consume a diet that is biologically appropriate for that species. A little research into the foods that are best for your pets will go a long way.
  2. A sound, resilient body (frame and organs): Muscle tone should be good; body weight should be optimal; teeth and should be healthy; heart, lungs, kidneys, liver and other organs should be working efficiently. A little exercise is going to maintain muscle tone and keep those kilos down. Exercise of course is beneficial for us and them.
  3. A balanced, functional immune system: The immune system should be able to protect the animal from pathogens, yet not be overactive, leading to things like allergies and autoimmune disease. A balanced immune system can lead to increase energy, sleep and life expectancy.
